    From FBWalshyFTW:

    This is the fifth installment of tranQ’s Halo community montage series “tranQ & Friends,” featuring gameplay from himself and the rest of the Halo community. As usual, the video showcases a nice mix of clips across several Halos, game types, and maps, and the editing is simple. I thought that the gameplay cut too quickly through the footage at times, but the syncing is great and the flow is still good overall. Enjoy!

    Major Nelson tweeted about a pretty sweet deal on the Games on Demand version of Halo: Reach – it’s under $15, with shipping! (Don’t ask why you need to pay shipping on a downloadable code. The answer will just make your head hurt.) If you follow the ‘5 new’ link on that page, you can save another $0.75 or so, even. Thanks, Beckx.(Louis Wu 15:55:50 UTC)

    Some people show their love for Halo by playing the games. Others get a relevant image permanently placed upon their body. Enjoy this particular example of a Halo-related body modification, and if you have a picture you’d like to submit for possible future inclusion, send it to bsangel[at]halowaypoint.com!

    From AgentPaperCraft:

    Test Night with Crafty is a weekly event dedicated to the forgers of Waypoint as convenient means of testing content for matchmaking consideration. It is also a great way to get constructive feedback on your map variants and game types. Your content will be observed by a secret member who reviews and suggests maps for matchmaking; this could mean thousands may eventually battle on your creations!

    Last week’s event was amazing. Please join us this week as we test large-scale Invasion and 6 v. 6 Invasion game types.

    Goose Checka let us know that she’s looking to harvest the contents of your brain for her doctoral dissertation. (You didn’t know she was working on a doctorate? YEAH, SHE’S SMART.) The survey has a bunch of questions about your gaming habits and personality. Yeah, it’ll take you a little while… but don’t worry, she knows you value your time, and she’s got 4 Amazon gift cards ($60 each) to give away to random survey responders! Not too shabby. All you need is to be 18 years old, and to have a Raptr account (if you don’t have one, she even provides you a link to set one up – they’re free). Go help do science!(Louis Wu 18:48:01 UTC)

    pete_the_duck has released a solution video to his recent Forge Puzzle – he shows off some of the clever ways fans came up with to unravel this conundrum. Fantastic stuff! (While you’re on his site, check out the two Valentines comics we neglected to mention last week: My Floaty Valentine, and It was a test and you flunked it. I gotta ask… what’s a duck doing dating bacon, anyway?) (Louis Wu 02:21:55 UTC)

    Andrew Hoehne was playing around with Universe Sandbox – and decided to do some Halo system modeling. He threw in real-world information about the Epsilon Eridani system, then added Reach… and took some pictures. Cool stuff! (Louis Wu 02:06:51 UTC)
